Ten Commandments for Dive Trips

(Adapted From a Hotel Lobby in St. Martin)

1. Divers shalt not expect to find things as they are at home, for thou hast left home to find things different.
2. Divers shalt not take anything too seriously for a carefree mind is the start of a good dive holiday.
3. Thou shalt not let the other divers get on thy nerves for thou hast paid good money to enjoy thyself.
4. Remember to take half the dive gear as thou thinkest and twice the money.
5. Know at all times where thy passport is for a diver without a passport is a diver without a country.
6. Remember that if divers had been expected to stay in one place we would have been created with roots.
7. Divers shalt not worry for he that worrieth hath no pleasure and few things are that fatal.
8. When in a strange land divers shall be prepared to do somewhat as its people do.
9. Divers shalt not judge the people of a country by a person who hath given thee trouble.
10. Remember thou art a guest in other lands and the diver that treats his host with respect shall be honored.

Dive Safe!
